Last week i was on the German Autobahn where is NO speedlimit.
It was early in the morning and almost none vehicles on the road.
My fueltank was full and also my LPG-tank was full.
We where in the truck with 4 people so the total weight was arround 7000 pounds.
Weather condition was perfect , no wind and a good road.

On my navigation device i did a topspeed of 260 km/h
That is 161 miles/h

How accurate is a sattelite navigation system ?

It sure was very fast , the guys in my truck says that it feld like an airplane right before it come of the ground , LOL
 
sweet:rock::rock::rock:

since ya have a Roe/SCT it is very possibile:burnout::rock::burnout::rock:
 
I've never done a top speed pull....how slow did it pull once it hit 140?
 
i went about 150mph in y old 05 qc and honestly, my leg was shaking when i started to slow down, it felt fast to me and that is the fastest i have ever been, not a racecar driver, just a construction workin avg joe.

What kind of navy u got. most of the good ones are VERY accurate, down to thousandths of a sec.

those things and the people that make them look at time much different than we do.

i would deffinatly trust the Garmin in front of the truck. even if the garmin leads my the wrong way down a 1way sometimes.lol:D
 
i use the factory OEM navigation.
but i use also a Speed Camera Alert System (Coyote).
it works with the same sattelites as the ones we use for the navigation.

more info here :
Coyote
 
I would say yes, you were doing 161mph, your truck deffinatly has the potential to do it.

i bet it was a rush:rock:
 
my truck goes over 160miles too,

but i do this for maximum 2 minutes,the tranny temp will go to high by this speed.
 
hehe, i have only pushed mine to 135ish..and that was just runnin down I-95 and i only kept it there for a minute cause i didnt want that fat ticket! i always wanted to try it somewhere to see if it really will do the 160 the speedometer says...someday, lol where there wont be any cops to get me!

I know its not a 10 but i have pegged my hemi past 120 on the stopper and it was still pulling.

if ur stock the truck wont pull much past 150mph, which for me is fast enough anyways:D

oh and at 135mph, its not a ticket, its a free ride to jail and an impounded truck;)

That sounds accurate to me. The fastest I've gone was 163 mph. But it took a while to get that fast and it felt like I was driving on ice. Scary.

yup i am stock, i dont race it so i figured the engine the way it is, is just fine for me, lol and its fast enough for me that way, i certainly dont want that free ride to jail and my baby in impound! :):burnout:
 
Luckaly for me i did the 161 m/h at the German Autobahn...NO SPEEDLIMIT :rock::):rock:

I have seen many shows on the autobahn, construction, safety precautions, etc,

u are lucky to live by it.

if u go to the right places in alaska and the lower 48 there are places where the speed limit is not enforced, but it takes a long time to get there. lol

i hear ye bro, if that crotch rocket in the pic is urs it looks like u gots alllllll the speeeeeeed-u-neeeeeeeed:D:D:D
 
West Texas is the perfect place for a romp to 160ish. They just put into law that some of these highways will be 85mph legally. Texas Autobahn, here we come.;)
I know for a fact that the Auto falls flat once into O/D so it musta took a bit to get there. I know that I can hit 125 in 4th REALLY fast now with the 6 speed vs. Auto.:burnout:
